电影珍珠港的英文介绍

The movie begins on a Tennessee farm in the late 1920s as two kids,Rafe McCawley and Danny Walker,play in a pretend fighter plane they made,pretending to be shooting down German planes.As they are playing,Rafe's dad is out dusting the fields in his old cropduster.When he lands and goes into his tractor,the two boys sneak into his plane and keep the pretend fight going.They accidentally start the plane and "fly" it down the runway,almost crashing it until it finally stops.Danny's father,who still suffers the effects of fighting in World War One,(William Fichtner) comes out and starts screaming at them and smacking Danny.Rafe grabs a board and whacks him to stop the beating,protecting his best friend.This snaps him out of his funk,and he tells Danny he only wants to ensure he doesn't go to war someday like how he "fought 'em in the trenches."
Years later,Rafe (Ben Affleck) and Danny (Josh Hartnett),both in their early twenties and First Lieutenants in the U.S.Army,are at a U.S.Army Air Corps training field commanded by Major Jimmy Doolittle (Alec Baldwin).Rafe is very cocky as he and Danny do a particularly dangerous stunt (a game of chicken) that almost kills them (and more importantly to the brass,almost damages the planes).They are called into Doolittle's office where they are reprimanded,but Doolittle is actually quite impressed with Rafe as he reminds him of himself when he was young.Later,Doolittle tells Rafe that he has been accepted to go to Britain and join Eagle Squadron,a squadron of volunteer American pilots serving with the Royal Air Force in the fight against the Germans.It is strictly a volunteer assignment,and Doolittle tells him it's his duty to talk him out of it.Rafe asks Doolittle what he would do,and Doolittle says he would go,so Rafe agrees to go as well.
Prior to Rafe leaving,there is a big dance in New York,and many nurses are coming to the event.Some of the nurses are traveling there by train,and one of them,Evelyn Johnson (Kate Beckinsale),is telling the other nurses how she first met Rafe while assessing his fitness to fly.Although his eyesight did not fit the standard requirement,she felt sorry and passed him anyway.During his flu shots,she first agreed to go out with him,and they have been going out now for four weeks and two days.At the dance,Rafe tells Evelyn that in the morning he is headed off to Europe.They have a tearful good-bye,and Rafe tells her not to come to the train station to see him off.He goes to Europe,and Evelyn and Danny get transferred to Pearl Harbor.
While in Europe,the squadron Rafe is a member and is scrambled to intercept a formation of Heinkel He 111 bombers,but Rafe's fighter is attacked by a Messerschmitt Bf 109 escort.His oil line is ruptured,and his canopy jams.His aircraft crashes into the sea.In Hawaii,Evelyn is informed that Rafe is missing presumed killed.
Three months later while separately going to the same movie,Danny and Evelyn see a newsreel that shows British fighters being shot down by the Germans.Thinking of Rafe,both Danny and Evelyn leave the theater and by accident meet each other out front of the building.They strike up a friendship again which eventually leads to a romantic after-hours flight and a sexual encounter in a parachute storage room.
Evelyn has stopped mourning Rafe,but one morning she discovers she's pregnant,she is stunned to find Rafe.As it turned out,after he crashed into the English Channel,the impact meant he could escape,and he was rescued by a French fishing boat and returned to occupied France for three months where he couldn't get word out to them that he was alive.Suddenly Danny appears,holding a telegram that Rafe is alive.Somehow,Rafe instantly realizes that Danny and Evelyn are now together and leaves the room,refusing to talk to Danny.
After a barfight,Danny and Rafe argue and eventually drive to a hillside to discuss what they are going to do about their situation.They have been drinking and fall asleep in their convertible under the stars,after Rafe says there must be a way to work this out.They are awakened the next morning by Japanese Zero fighters,Val dive bombers and Kate torpedo bombers flying overhead.The barely-awake pilots think it is the U.S.Navy performing exercises.
The Japanese attack catches the U.S.fleet largely unaware,despite Admiral Kimmel having been informed of a Japanese midget submarine destroyed near the entrance to the harbor.Much of the surprise came not from a lack of awareness of the planes,but a radar station dismissing the large number of contacts as a flight of B-17s.A bomb dropped from a Kate bomber ruptures the forward part of the USS Arizona's ammunition magazine,literally splitting the ship in half and sending it to the bottom.Meanwhile,Japanese fighters are attacking the airstrips present on the island to prevent any attempt to intercept the attack aircraft.Petty Officer Doris "Dorie" Miller (Cuba Gooding Jr.),a cook on the USS West Virginia,mans an antiaircraft gun and manages to shoot down a Japanese plane.Around the same time,Evelyn,Sandra,Betty and the other nurses head towards the hospital to help injured people.On their way they are strafed,and many people flee into the hospital while some are killed.The gunfire forces Evelyn and Sandra to hide behind a fountain.Suddenly,a plane drops a bomb,and Betty is killed while the other women hide in the hospital.
Later,Evelyn and the other nurses are working frantically with masses of incoming casualties,having to prioritize which lives can be saved and who receives priority care.Rafe and Danny make it to their Army auxiliary airfield,and together with another pilot manage to get their planes moving,though the other pilot is destroyed before getting off the ground.The two of them shoot down seven Japanese planes over the Harbor.They even use the same maneuver that got them into trouble at Doolittle's school to force four Zeros to crash into each other.
The attack finally ends,and because of their heroism,Rafe and Danny are both promoted to Captain and assigned to Doolittle (now promoted to Lt.Col) for a top secret mission.President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Jon Voight) wants to send a message that the Japanese homeland is not immune from bombing.They are going to put Army Air Corp B-25 Mitchell bombers onto the aircraft carrier USS Hornet (instead of the usual light naval assault bombers),sail out close to Japan,take off a few hundred miles offshore,bomb Tokyo and land in China.Prior to leaving,a heartbroken Rafe apologizes to Evelyn for leaving her,and asks why she wants to see him.She reveals that she is pregnant,but has not yet told Danny so he can focus on his mission.She also says that she is going to go with Danny,but deep down inside she will always love Rafe just as much.When Rafe and Danny leave,Evelyn tells Danny that she loves him and she will be waiting for him.
